MANILA -- The upcoming action film "Sa Ngalan ng Ama, Ina, at mga Anak" features several actors from the Padilla clan of celebrities, with one notable exception.

Lead star Robin Padilla explained why his younger sibling BB Gandanghari, formerly Rustom, won't be starring alongside other members of their family in the film inspired by the infamous Kuratong Baleleng gang.

In a previous interview, Robin admitted that he has had to take "baby steps" in accepting his brother as an openly gay man who identifies as a woman. The older Padilla also said he is not keen on the idea of Gandanghari being in a relationship with a man.
